Geordie is soooo much more than chug 1234 greg.



He is a master of arpeggios from another world and making single twangy
notes hit like an anvil the size of Jupiter. For my money he does this way
better than the little tiny bees in the jar chug which every pants shitting
toddler can do.



If Geordie's legacy is too heavily weighted with memories of chug it will be
an abomination, and he would surely be forgotten in short order.

Wow, people are really down on poor old Geordie. Correct me if I 'm wrong,
but hasn't he pretty much been the master of heavy, dense, 4/4 downstroke
guitar for the past 30 years (with the exception of some pop crap on BTATS
and OTG)? I thought we liked that kind of guitar sound...

The bad:



What? Why can't kj learn that less is more, space is more important than yet
another track of guitar buzz saturating and obscuring what came before it.
The guitar has no body, no power, no point of existing. Why have Geordie
play if what he creates sounds like a kid who just learned IV chords at a
guitar center on a POD.



1234 1234 downstrokes for a groove.fucking lazy rudimentary and not
interesting or inspiring.for robot dancers only.



On the positive side:



The voice sounds better then the past couple albums at least jaz isn't
trying to sound like a old warty toad possessed by a B movie villain.



Youth doesn't sound like he has in the mid 90's
